it feels like that in the beginning but keep playing and it will soon click. Then it gets really really fun.

the gist is you dodge a guy, hit him a few times, turn on slowmo, knock him into other guys. I don't think it was well conveyed by the tutorials either

>Beat up groups of enemies until you have a decent number of points then finish them all off by punching them in slow to rack up a big point multiplier to get a lot of v-bucks
>If you're hit while in slow you'll dodge at the cost of VFX power
>Punching stunned enemies in slow sends them flying and they deal massive damage to anything they hit (VERY important for killing basically any vehicle enemy quickly)
>Slow zoom punching does the most damage out of anything in the game
>Mach speed is very situational and mostly used for secrets and having fire immunity

There are "puzzle" sections that are basically impossible to get a good score on without knowing exactly what to do, don't worry about them on a first play through.

Money is very tight on a first playthrough, this is my advice
>save buying health upgrades for when you need to heal between levels since they full heal you
>You can buy voomerangs at the first break to make the first boss a joke but it's kind of a waste imo
>buy slide after the first boss because you can use it to find secret bombs and voomerangs under the bus in the next level
>VFX turbo charger is THE best upgrade in the game and you should focus on saving for it before buying anything else. You should really have it by the water level
>Mach speed upgrades are good but way too expensive, you're better off buying the slide, dive kick, and air combo before you even think of it
>Viewtiful Forever sucks, Ukemi is good but falls off on harder difficulties since it only ever restores 1 heart no matter how many you actually lose from a hit

If you actually beat the game and want to play more I would recommend playing it again on normal just to get more money for health and upgrades before moving up to hard, going straight to hard is rough.

I hate Kamiya's games rating system so much, I think his only game with a good rating system was Okami.

To live, duck or hop around attacks. Maybe slow motion dodge if it's too hard to duck/ hop.
For Viewtifuls, do a few punches and kicks on an enemy, maybe knock them into the air to be safe, then go for a slow motion attack. You should be able to land some more hits in slow motion, too.

How the fuck have VJ1/2 not been at least bare bones ported off 6th gen consoles? Even something like God Hand got a PS2 Classics rerelease on PS3.

Viewtfiul Joe and Bayonetta have great scoring systems.
>>
>>736825289
Press the buttons and avoid to get hit, retard.

imagine needing a 40 minute onions essay to understand “punch guy, go slow-mo, punch guy harder”

mork is fine but VJ isn’t lab coat tech, you just have to stop mashing and actually use slow on purpose. the game feels like shit until you realize slow = damage AND crowd control. after that it clicks and you don’t need a babysitter explaining it frame by frame.
